Startup School is a free online course for founders actively pursuing their own startup. It is a free, 10-week, online course. It’s designed for any startup founder who would like to get help through the earliest, most difficult challenges of starting a company. Founders may choose to join the Startup School community and meet with an advisor on a weekly basis, or to simply follow along with the course by watching the lectures and materials. In both cases, the class is completely free.

Startup School lectures will be delivered live in Mountain View, California at Y Combinator’s headquarters and then made available for viewing online. The goal is to help everyone, regardless of who or where they are, start their startup. Every year the materials of the course will remain online after the course finishes as a permanent resource for all startup founders.
